If Photoshop is the center of your creative world, it's a good choice when you need to edit video. In this course, Rich Harrington reveals how Photoshop CC's powerful image-editing tools translate to video and shows how to transform a selection of clips into polished movies. He'll walk through three projects, so you get a feel for different types of footage and editing styles, and illustrate the basic technical skills that will help you edit clips into cohesive stories. You'll learn how to import and organize footage, correct color and exposure issues, add titles and transitions, adjust volume, and publish your finished project. Plus, find out how to create "moving picture" slideshows from still images using a similar Timeline-based workflow.
